LABEL HOLDER WITH MAGNETIC SUCTION PLATE
A vacuum station comprising a main housing and a pair of arms extending from the main housing. The arms are configured to hold a roller. The main housing has a front face and a rear face, with the front face having a recess therein. An air path extends from the front face to the rear face. The vacuum station also includes a removable plate having a plurality of suction holes therethrough located within the recess in the front face of the main housing. The removable plate is removably connected to the main housing by magnets. A sheet of labels can be held to the removable plate by a suction force through the air path in the main housing and the suction holes in the removable plate.
System for a printer extension kit
A printer extension kit that modifies a printer to receive and output longer pieces of paper. The printer extension kit includes an input extension part, an output extension part, and an output extension clip. The paper tray of a printer is extended by the input extension part allowing the printer to hold longer pieces of paper. The input extension part is attached to the paper tray of a printer. The output extension part allows a printer to output longer pieces of paper. In more detail, the output extension part prevents longer pieces of paper from falling of the catch tray of a printer. The output extension part is attached into the catch tray of a printer. The output extension clip provides another means for a printer to output longer pieces of paper. In more detail, the output extension clip is attached along the output paper catch of a printer.
IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND SHEET FEEDING APPARATUS
An image forming apparatus includes an apparatus body including an image forming unit, a unit detachably attached to the apparatus body, a first rotary member provided in the unit, a second rotary member provided in the apparatus body and configured to be coupled with and decoupled from the first rotary member by being moved in a rotation axial direction of the first rotary member, and a restriction member provided in the apparatus body and movable to a first position and a second position. The restriction member includes an engaging portion configured to engage with the second rotary member and is configured to move the second rotary member by the engaging portion so that the second rotary member is decoupled from the first rotary member along with a move of the restriction member from the first position to the second position.
Image forming apparatus
An image forming apparatus includes a feeding unit, a detection unit provided downstream of the feeding unit, a measurement unit that measures a measured time from the start of conveyance of a recording material to the detection of the recording material, and a determination unit that performs renewal determination for determining whether the feeding unit has been replaced with a new feeding unit. Thus, replacement of the feeding unit with a new feeding unit can automatically be detected.
Band-shaped belt, endless belt, and method for manufacturing same
An endless belt includes a band-shaped belt main body made of a vulcanized rubber, and a coupling part that is made of a thermoplastic resin and is provided between both end parts of the belt main body, wherein the vulcanized rubber of the both end parts of the belt main body and the thermoplastic resin of the coupling part are chemically bonded to each other.
REPLACEABLE STACK SHEET
A replaceable stack sheet replaceably provided in a medium integration/separation device to guide integration of a medium according to an embodiment includes a body which is coupled to a rotary shaft and in which a plurality of support shafts are spaced apart from each other in a circumferential direction, and a plurality of sheet pieces having ends rotatably coupled to the plurality of support shafts.
MULTIFUNCTION MACHINE, MAINTENANCE METHOD OF MULTIFUNCTION MACHINE, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF MULTIFUNCTION MACHINE
A main body frame of a multifunction machine has first and second frames of which surfaces parallel to a Z-axis face each other. A recording head is disposed between the first and the second frames and fixed to the main body frame. An ejection tray is fixed to the main body frame on a +Z direction with respect to the recording head. A scanner is fixed to the main body frame on the +Z direction with respect to the ejection tray and forms an ejection space with the ejection tray. The recording head performs recording on a medium which is being transported toward a first direction, which is an in-plane direction of the first frame. The ejection tray is configured to be removed toward a second direction, which is the in-plane direction of the first frame, in a state where the scanner is fixed to the main body frame.
No-Feed-Roll Corrugated Board or Paperboard Sheet Feeder Retrofit Apparatus and Method
A self-contained no-feed-roll computer controlled corrugated board or paperboard sheet feeder apparatus 200 is configured to upgrade an installed corrugated board processing machine (e.g., 10) and includes a feed table surface 210 for boards (e.g., 2) having drive wheels (222W, 224W, 226W) in an initial variable velocity zone 220 which drives the board in a first motion profile through a first vacuum zone, and a second velocity zone 230 which then drives the board in a second motion profile through a second vacuum zone Retrofittable sheet feeder 200 also includes a controller 300 configured to receive predetermined velocity signals from the host machine 10 and generate (i) a first initial variable velocity control signal for initial variable velocity zone 220 and (ii) a second velocity control signal for second velocity zone 230 in response.
